Thanksgiving 2010

We had such a fun Thanksgiving holiday this year! We loaded up the truck and headed to San Angelo, Texas to spend a few days with Grammy and Papa Davis.

Baby K ended up without a bed in our hotel our first night gone, but he LOVED the arrangements we made for him. He giggled in his sleep all night long! And big brother was very jealous that he didn't get to sleep in a drawer.
We got to eat and eat and eat LOTS of yummy food!
Kehlton's make-shift high chair.
The boys also got to spend some time with Great Grandma and Grandpa Tucker. Brychan's face tells you everything you need to know about this photo shoot...
We also went to a fantastic lily pad park in town to try and get some family photos.
Fresh mistletoe!
And some of the lily pads

Unfortunately, this is the best family photo we got! :)

We had so much fun this week! We also did some shopping and saw a couple of movies (Harry Potter and Tangled were both great!). I am ready to pack up and move to Texas...absolutely stunning old homes for ridiculously cheap, lots of fun things to do, temperate weather and amazing kindness and hospitality. *Mom and Dad; don't get your hopes up! I doubt it will ever happen and it won't be to San Angelo. Sorry!* We really enjoyed our trip!

Book Worm

This boy loves to read! Books or magazines, he doesn't care! Once he gets in his "reading mood" he will sit for an hour or more just flipping through pages; either silently looking at pictures or reading the story to himself.

Reading books at Lala's last week


Flipping through one of his favorite catalogs to look at...an early childhood toy/supply catalog that I get in the mail.

Box Canyon

About an hour away from us is a very nice, secluded, beautiful canyon that David just happened to find out about thanks to his Scout Camporee last weekend. We really wanted to go camping up there this weekend, but a certain soon-to-be-1 year old has too much of an icky nose to be sleeping outside. However, we grabbed Lala and met some friends from church to spend some time exploring the canyon for the afternoon.

It was so nice to see fall colors (on real leaves...not palms or cactus) and feel nice, crisp, cool weather!The boys (big and small) had a blast playing in the river at the bottom of the canyon. Brychan had to stop and throw in every rock and/or stick he could get his hands on.

We also climbed LOTS of rocks. *Sidenote: can you believe how dark his hair has gotten?
And Kehlton ate his fair share of rocks. Kehlton also took off across the river by himself. Luckily, that spot was quite low and hit him just above his ankles. He didn't seem to care that it was freezing!
Unfortunately, the batteries in the camera died about 5 photos in and I forgot to put the new batteries in the bag. Oops! We are seriously SO excited about going back as soon as we can!!

A Song

While Brychan is our dancer, Kehlton is our little singer! This kid LOVES singing - with or without help!
